About

Jessica De Lasaux

I studied yoga philosophy before learning the postures, or yoga asanas. In 1999 I took a course in Asian Philosophy where I was introduced to the Bhagavad Gita for the first time. Looking back, this text established the foundation and planted the seeds for how I approach my life. In 2003 I took a yoga class at the local college where I discovered the benefits of modern postural yoga. I was fortunate to learn from a well informed teacher who taught within the anusara lineage. I developed a home practice based on this small sliver of information, at that time there were no local studios. After the encouragement of friends and family I decided to attend a teacher training in 2015. My first two hundred hours of training were under Janet Stone, I refer to my life as "before Janet" and "after Janet." Through her, I was introduced to Yoga Therapy and my first Yoga Therapeutics instructor, Harvey Deutch. I completed a 100 hundred hour training with Harvey and then launched into my 800 hour training in 2017 to receive certification as a Yoga Therapist. My Yoga Therapy training takes place in Marin County through an accredited program with the Stress Management Center. Due to covid-19, my completion date has shifted from June of 2020 to December 2020.

Yoga Therapists are at the helm of scientific medical research and are in demand by institutions such as hospitals, schools and corporate wellness programs. It's obvious that people are craving the benefits that yoga offers that the modern healthcare system doesn't quite understand. By wielding Therapeutic Yoga tools I am able to develop a holistic practice for each individual without aggravating their condition, allowing them to build confidence and increased health. If you are tired of conventional and pharmaceutical methods for resolving your suffering, you have come to the right place.
